"Search for Tomorrow," which is a low-budgeted soaper, nevertheless should do a good job for its bankroller, Proctor & Gamble. Agnes Eckhardt, who is scripting the series, appears able to endow it with some fairly mature dramatic values….

On the [premiere] the episode eschewed the usual soap opera technique of presenting the entire dramatis personae. Instead it was played with only four of the central characters in three tight scenes. It started with an argument between Victor Barron, a domineering executive, and his son Victor, who prefers photography to his dad's contracting business and bridles under his father's domination. This was sensitively handled with the antagonists' views stated sharply and with validity.
